Exercise 15. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.
In many ways, the increasingly rapid pace of climate change is a direct result of the growth of the human population.
In the last 100 years, the world population has more than tripled. Obviously, this has meant that the world has needed
to produce three times as much food, energy, and other natural resources.
In addition, the average person uses more energy and natural resources than the average person one hundred
years ago, meaning that the rates of consumption are actually much higher than just the increase in population would
imply.
All of these activities: food production, energy usage, and the use of natural resources, contribute to climate change in
some way. The greater amounts of oil and other fuels burned to create energy release chemicals which add to global
warming. In order to produce more food, farmers cut down trees to gain more land for their fields. In addition, we cut
down trees to build the houses needed for a larger population. Those trees are an essential part of controlling global
warming.
In addition to a growing population, the world also has a population that desires a higher standard of living than
in the past, and a higher standard of living requires the use of even more natural resources. For example, China is the
world’s most populous nation, with 1.3 billion people. Currently, the standard of living for most of those people is far
below that of people in first world nations. Therefore, the average Chinese citizen uses far fewer natural resources and
less energy than the average citizen of the US or Japan. If every Chinese person attains a first world lifestyle, the
amount of energy and natural resources needed in the world will double, even if the standard of living in every other
nation on Earth remains the same as it is today.
1. The word “pace” in the passage is closest in meaning to _____.
A. growth B. speed C. problem D. pollution
2. The word “consumption” in the passage is closest in meaning to _____.
A. development B. usage C. population D. increase
3. According to the passage, how does food production contribute to global warming?
A. Food production requires that the forests be cleared to create farmland.
B. Food production uses many chemicals which add to global warming.
C. Producing more food leads to growth in the world population.
D. Food production decreases the ability of the air to release heat.
4. According to the passage, how does the standard of living affect global warming?
A. Higher standards of living are better for the environment.
B. First world nations create less population than developing nations.
C. The use of natural resources is directly related to the standard of living.
D. High standards of living lead to increases in world population.
5. Why does the author discuss China, Japan and the United States?
A. To compare the standards of their citizens.
B. To explain why China will not be able to become a first world nation.
C. To explain why the world’s use of energy will need to double soon.
D. To better illustrate the effects of an increase in standards of living.
